One is struck again by the clarity of Michel-Rolph Trouillot's arguments about power and the status of the historical; one is called by his precise attention to what is at stake and the skill with which he connected the intimate and the world, or rather, his multiple commitments ‘to both home and the world.’ To begin from Trouillot is to reconstitute all, to reimagine all.” -- Christina Sharpe author of * In the Wake: On Blackness and Being *\u003cbr\u003e“Michel-Rolph Trouillot produced a distinctive presence in the scholarly worlds of anthropology and Caribbean studies. By the sheer force of his example, he invited us to recognize not only the irreducible complexity of the Caribbean as a horizon of inquiry but also the intellectual duty to take up the challenge of reinventing the categories through which we apprehend and engage this complexity. \u003ci\u003eTrouillot Remixed\u003c\/i\u003e offers us a thematically distilled selection of his work that will provoke us to appreciate his contribution in fresh and unexpected ways.” -- David Scott, Columbia University\u003cbr\u003e\"A collection of his writing that reveals the importance and potency of his work. . . . This reader includes the scholar’s famous writings as well as lesser-known pieces and offers an opportunity for readers to explore his vital contributions to Caribbean studies and to get a broad view of Trouillot’s theories and observations of the cultures and realm he so acutely studied.\" -- Jordannah Elizabeth * New York Amsterdam News *\u003cbr\u003e\"This book should permit students to enter into the special world of MRT’s intellectual concerns, his creative and original interrogation of the foundations of anthropology, history, and Caribbean studies, his relentless questioning of the very categories with which we think.\" * New West Indian Guide *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments  ix\u003cbr\u003e Prelude: Remembering the Songwriter: The Life and Legacies of Michel-Rolph Trouillot \/ Yarimar Bonilla  1\u003cbr\u003e Overture: Trouillot Remixed \/ Yarimar Bonilla, Greg Beckett, and Mayanthi Fernando  14\u003cbr\u003e Part I.
